Chapter 771
It was already dark, Wu Meiniang was tossing and turning on the bed, she felt bad, she didn't even eat lunch, but she didn't feel hungry.

The nuns were frightened again during the day, and they didn't dare to offend her. They still expected her to say something nice in front of Wang Xiangye, so they flattered her, she didn't go to dinner, and hosted the old nun. He even sent someone to bring the meal.

After the time to light the lamp, the stone room was pitch black, Wu Meiniang turned sideways, looked at the small transom window, and thought: "That Ouyang Li is real, why didn't he bring the window here, now there is a wooden board hanging on the window, and there is a whole room in the room. No lights can come in."

She stood up from the bed, removed the windshield boards from the window, looked at the moon outside, sighed deeply, and began to think of Li Zhilai again.When she was in Gyeongju, she and Li Zhi went out and sat under the moon, talking about their thoughts, but now the moon is still there, and she has become a nun, and Li Zhi came to the temple today, but the two cannot see each other.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, and someone came running.Wu Meiniang hurriedly got off the bed, she had just put on her shoes when she heard the second senior sister's clear voice.Qiao Ran shouted outside the door: "Junior Sister Kong, something is wrong, Master Wang is back, and he wants all the seniors and sisters in the monastery to go to the front yard, I don't know what to do!"

Wu Meiniang was taken aback, why did Wang Pingan go back and forth, and he wanted to see all the nuns in the monastery again, what did he want to do?Opening the door, he saw that he was standing outside anxiously.Liao Ran grabbed Wu Meiniang and said: "Good junior sister, quickly go to the front yard with senior sister, now only you can talk to Wang Xiangye, it will all be up to you later!"

Wu Meiniang walked with her and asked, "Second Senior Sister, what's the matter, why did Wang Xiangye want to see everyone in the temple?"

Clearly said: "I don't know, it's too scary, it's really scary! By the way, he also asked to hand in all the gifts he gave us last time. What should we do? We have used many things , I can’t return it!”

Wu Meiniang looked back at the stone room, she still had a lot of gifts from last time in her room, such as candles, but they haven't been used much yet!It's really strange, Wang Ping'an ran back and forth asking for gifts, why is that, could it be that the emperor asked him to do this?

Her heart was beating wildly, she couldn't figure out why, Wu Meiniang followed her to the front yard.At this time, the front yard was full of people, and all the nuns from the Hesi Temple had arrived. Wang Ping'an stood at the front with a gloomy face. Behind him were several officers, all holding torches, staring at the nuns with raised eyebrows.

The presiding nun was afraid, thinking that Wang Ping'an came to find fault on purpose, but she thought over and over again, she had never offended this new prime minister, why did he make things difficult for the temple again and again, this What is it for?

Standing in front, Wang Ping'an was also a little nervous, until he saw Wu Meiniang running from behind, then he was relieved.He and Li Zhi went back to the city again, rushed all the way to Ganye Temple, and waited in the woods. He didn't enter the temple until after dark, while Li Zhi, accompanied by Ouyang Li, waited outside the temple.

In the name of asking for the gift back, Wang Pingan ordered the presiding nun to summon all the nuns in the temple, and he wanted to roll their names.

The presiding nun came forward tremblingly, bent his waist, and whispered: "Master Wang, all the people in the temple have arrived. If you have anything to do, please tell me!" After saying this, She quickly turned around and waved to Wu Meiniang, telling Wu Meiniang to come forward.

Wu Meiniang didn't know what Wang Ping'an was going to do, so she walked over slowly, lowered her head, and stood behind the host old nun.

Wang Ping'an's complexion changed suddenly, and a smile appeared on his face, and said: "Last time when I came to the temple, I brought a lot of gifts from the emperor. I wonder if you have received them? Well, it seems that people have not arrived Are you ready?"

The presiding nun hurriedly said again: "If you go back to Wang Xiangye, the nobles who have just entered the temple did not come. Didn't you just tell them not to disturb them, except for them, everyone else has arrived!"

She was afraid that Wang Pingan would use those concubines and nuns to make a fuss, so she simply called them nobles respectfully, no matter what else, she told Wang Pingan that she would never dare to abuse those nobles, please don't come here to find fault !
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "I don't interfere with you. To be honest, I'm helping you by coming and going, so that you won't be retaliated against in the future! Now it's just a little more trouble." , It’s better than losing your life in the future. In fact, being a nun is quite good, and you don’t have to worry about eating and drinking. Where can I find such a good livelihood now?

Wang Ping'an said: "Actually, there is nothing else, that is, the last time the truth came, I didn't hand over the gifts to the teachers, and I don't know if those gifts from the emperor are suitable for you, but after returning to the palace today, the emperor suddenly I started to ask, so the truth came again, and I wanted to ask you."

The presiding old nun and the nuns of the whole temple looked at each other in blank dismay, no way, it's just such a small matter?Why didn't you say it earlier, you scared us half to death!

The presiding old nun said: "If you go back to Wang Xiangye, those things are very useful, very useful. Please Wang Xiangye will play the emperor on behalf of the poor nun. I am very grateful for the reward from the emperor. I will hold a Dharma meeting tomorrow. Chanting scriptures and praying for the emperor!"

Wang Pingan smiled and said: "Okay, you can use the gift together. That's enough, there's nothing else to do. After asking the truth, I'm going back." He waved his hands, as if he was about to leave the temple, and left After taking two steps, he stopped again, and said: "By the way, the temple is full of women. When you go back to the house at night, it is best not to wander around, let alone go out of the temple. Keep the door and sleep in the house honestly. Safety Come on, understand?"

The presiding nun and the nuns hurriedly thanked each other, but they thought in their hearts: "It's okay, let's be free. When it gets dark, how can anyone come out of the temple?"

Wang Ping'an walked outside the temple, and when he passed by Wu Meiniang, he said again: "Don't go out to carry water and firewood, remember to remember." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Wu Meiniang and strode away.

The old nun who hosted Wang Pingan had been sending Wang Pingan out, and when she came back, she asked Wu Meiniang, "My good disciple, you didn't say anything to Wang Xiangye, did you? How did he know about your chopping firewood last night?"

Wu Meiniang shook her head and said: "The disciple didn't say anything to Wang Xiangye?" After a pause, as if thinking of something, she said again: "I just mentioned something to Wang Xiangye's guards!"

The hostess old nun thought: "It's terrible, why do you talk about everything!" She smiled and said: "My good disciple, don't tell the king and his guards about the affairs of the temple in the future. Now, concentrate on practicing!"

The elder sister's face turned pale, she lowered her head deeply, she didn't dare to look at her master, let alone Wu Meiniang, she didn't know what she was thinking.

The old nun waved his hand and said: "There are many things today, everyone is tired, go back to the room early to rest, and don't do evening classes, go back, go back!" She felt very tired and didn't want to say anything more. I went back to my quiet room, and the nuns also went back to their houses.

Wu Meiniang walked back to her quiet room, and when she got to the door, she saw that the door of the stone room was still open. She was in a hurry before going out, without closing the door, and was about to enter the room when she suddenly remembered what Wang Pingan said.Don't wander around, but keep the door well... Hey, is it possible that Wang Ping'an is implying something to himself?
Wu Meiniang stopped in her footsteps, and suddenly became emotional. Could it be that Wang Pingan wants to come over at night, afraid that she will not be able to see herself if she is not in the stone room?What's more, is the emperor coming tonight?
When she thought of this, her body could hardly stand still, she stretched out her hand to support the door frame, gasped for breath, and thought to herself: "Oh my god, my god, my god... The emperor is coming, I can finally see him again!"

After much difficulty, she regained her emotional stability, and slowly entered the stone room, closed the door, sat on the bed, sat on the bed for a while, then jumped up again, took down the latch, opened the door and looked outside. Only then did she close the door again, and this time she left the bar unlatched, and slowly sat back on the bed.

A heart was beating non-stop, my whole body was trembling with tension, I wanted to cry, I wanted to jump, I tried to hold it back, but I was restless and unspeakably uncomfortable!

Waiting is the most anxious thing!

After a while, there were soft footsteps in the yard!
Wu Meiniang jumped up from the bed all of a sudden, her throat felt dry, and she thought to herself: "Here we come, finally we come!"

Papapa, there was a soft knock on the door!

In the woods outside the temple, beside the stream!
Wang Pingan left the Ganye Temple, rode his horse along the avenue for a long way, turned a corner, and made sure that the nuns behind him could no longer see him, so he went into the woods and went back around.

Entering the depths of the woods, he dismounted from the white dragon horse, and let the guards lead the horses to follow him, while he ran in the woods, trotting all the way, and came to the side of the stream, where Li Zhi was waiting.

Li Zhi was sitting on a rock. Like Wu Meiniang, he was also waiting anxiously, and he was also extremely uncomfortable.Waiting is the most difficult for Wu Meiniang, and it is also very difficult for him!
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Li Zhi bounced off the rock just like Wu Meiniang. He hurried to meet him, and whispered, "Are you not sick?"

Wang Pingan came to the front out of breath, and said: "It's the minister, the minister is back!"

Li Zhi was so nervous that his eyes widened, and he asked: "How, did you see that person? There is that person in the temple, right? Don't say that you didn't see everything, didn't see that person, I There must be such a person, there must be such a person, there must be, there must be!"

When he said this, he didn't seem to be asking Wang Ping'an, but he was trying his best to tell himself that he had to convince himself that his feeling was right, there must be a nun in the temple who looked exactly like Wu Meiniang!
Wang Pingan took a breath, nodded heavily, and said, "Your Majesty is right, there is indeed a woman in the temple who looks exactly like Meiniang, I almost thought she was Meiniang!"

Until now, he refused to tell the truth. When Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang recognized each other, Wu Meiniang had to say it herself, saying that she was "herself" and that she was not dead. This would cause Li Zhi the greatest shock. If he said it, the meaning would be small!

As for whether Li Zhi would blame himself for hiding it from him in the future, that really doesn't matter much, at worst weeping and begging the emperor to forgive him.Li Zhi will only be angry for a moment, and then he will understand his good intentions, and he will trust himself more in the future, because he is all for his sake!Li Zhi is just cowardly and a little bit confused, but not so confused that he can't distinguish between good and bad people!

Li Zhi's body wobbled and he couldn't stand firmly, Wang Pingan quickly supported him, saying: "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body, it's just a woman, it's not worth you doing this for her!"

Li Zhi stood firm, put his hands together, and firmly grasped Wang Ping'an's shoulders, saying: "That person looks exactly like Mei Niang? Can you see clearly? How exactly is it so?"

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "They are already exactly the same, how can they be more similar!" He said, "There is something a little different!"

Li Zhi made a sound, and then asked: "Why is it that you don't look like Fa'er? Why don't you look like it? Say it quickly, say it quickly!" He became more and more anxious, and his heart was in a state of panic.

Wang Pingan said: "Hair doesn't look like that, the woman in the temple has no hair..."

Li Zhi was taken aback, then pushed him angrily, and said angrily: "Of course the hair doesn't look like it, Mei Niang has black hair all over her head, and that woman is a nun, how could a nun have hair!"

Wang Pingan hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the minister is wrong. However, except for the hair, there is nothing alike, even the voice is exactly the same!"

Li Zhi suddenly became quiet and stood still, his body trembling slightly.Wang Pingan didn't dare to say anything, he looked at the emperor, and the emperor also looked at him!
After a while, Li Zhi said: "I'm going to see her, let's go into the temple now! Thinking about it while walking, you can find a reason for me, why did you go to see a nun in the middle of the night, after making it up, it's up to you Explain to that host!"

Seeing that he was going to the front door, Wang Pingan hurriedly pulled him back, saying: "Don't worry, your majesty, you don't need to go through the front door. I have already asked you clearly. That woman is not welcome by the host, so she was arranged to live at the back mountain gate." , live in an independent stone room, and there are no other quiet rooms nearby, so we can go in through the back mountain gate instead of the front door!" He said, pointing to the back mountain gate.

Li Zhi stopped, looked in the direction of the back mountain gate, and said, "The back mountain gate? Is that the back mountain gate? That's the back mountain gate, right?" He was a little confused and spoke quickly and anxiously.

Wang Pingan said: "Yes, just go in from there. Other nuns won't go to the stone room when it's dark. Let's go in secretly."

Ouyang Li was listening all the time, seeing that the emperor was so anxious, he said: "Your Majesty, just go in and look at the woman. If you go in too suddenly and scare her, you don't have to worry about it. You can talk to her, and I will wait for you." Hold her down, cover her mouth..."

Wang Pingan was angry and funny at the same time, flicked his sleeves, and reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Ouyang Li giggled, feeling smug in his heart, he did not work in vain in his life, and he even joked about the emperor, so cool, so cool!
Li Zhi didn't care what they said, he ran towards the back mountain gate with big strides, Wang Pingan hurriedly followed behind, and whispered: "Your Majesty, slow down, there are many forests here, it's not easy to walk, be careful of falling!"

The monarchs and ministers trotted all the way to the back mountain gate. Ouyang Li stepped forward and drew out his waist knife, unlocked the latch from the crack of the door, and gently pushed the door open.

Wang Pingan grabbed the emperor and hissed softly, signaling the emperor not to make any noise.

Li Zhiqiang endured the anxiety in his heart, walked into the back mountain gate, and looked in the direction of Wang Ping'an's finger!
